Localization

Manifold Speaks Your Language

Share your Language

Manifold Release 9 and Manifold Viewer interfaces use English language by default but will automatically switch to using a different language when specified in a user-editable localization file. The localization file lists in canonical form all strings used for captions, menus, prompts and other user interface text and specifies the text to be used for that string in the desired language.

Any user can take the canonical default.ui.txt file and provide their own translation for whatever language they like. Example localization files created by Manifold users include French, German, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish languages provided in the ui.zip file (click the link to download). The latest, up-to-date canonical English default.ui.txt file is published in the portable Manifold installation package.

English default.ui.txt File

CommandFileNew=New|Create new document.
CommandFileOpen=Open...|Open existing document.
CommandFileOpenRecent=Recent Projects|Open recently opened document.
CommandFileSave=Save|Save opened document.
CommandFileSaveAs=Save As...|Save opened document with a new name.
CommandHelp=Help|Help commands.
CommandHelpAbout=About...|Display program version and copyright.

When a German localization file is placed in the Manifold installation folder, on launch Manifold will look at the Windows language setting and if Windows has been set to German, Manifold will automatically load the German localization file.
Manifold can also use a different language while Windows stays in English. See details in the Localization topic in the User Manual.
Authors creating localization files for their own languages will often discuss the process and assist each other on the User Forum.
